Innovative musician and producer Fred Again releases “Kammy (like I do),” which includes a vocal sample from KAMILLE. The release is the latest from his forthcoming album Actual Life 3 (January 1 – September 9 2022), set for release on October 28th via Atlantic Records.
The production style Fred used on his debut album, Actual Life (February 2 – July 19), and its companion follow-up, Actual Life 2 (February 2 – October 15 2021), is continued on Actual Life 3. His intimate use of voice notes from friends, videos found whilst scrolling on Instagram and samples from important records in his life serves as a personal record of his life experiences, offering insight into his world over the past year.
Fred Again upcoming album, Actual Life 3
A continuation of an autobiographical body of work, Actual Life 3 is a tribute to the ability of music to promote catharsis, healing, and the celebration of the realities of friendship, love, and life while also referencing and advancing the history of UK electronic music.
As part of his ‘USB’ playlist series, Fred Again debuted a string of well-received club-ready singles earlier this year, including Future’s turn-on-the-lights remix of Swedish House Mafia‘s “Turn On The Lights again..” in June, the thunderous “Jungle,” HAAi and Romy’s “Lights Out,” and I. Jordan’s “Admit It (U Don’t Want 2) All four are now commonplaces in DJ sets across the globe, as well as in Fred’s own live performances, a stunningly polished show that takes audiences through material from his Actual Life album series’ heartbreakingly beautiful moments and the unifying, standout songs from last summer, “Marea (We’ve Lost Dancing)” and “Billie (Loving Arms).”
The Coachella festival in California was one of the locations where this was witnessed in all its splendor; according to Forbes:
Fred Again.. caught quite the Coachella buzz, and for good reason. The aesthetic of his vibrant set somehow perfectly encapsulated our collective nervous breakdown of the past two years and then set us all free.

The artist: Fred Again
The talented London artist has already had two critically acclaimed albums from his Actual Life series released. Both fans and critics adored them. As he first turned his Actual Life albums into an immersive, group real-life experience, Fred also became one of the year’s most talked-about live performers last year. His performances sold out across the UK and the USA, earning him a spot on Mixmag’s list of the “Top 10 Live Acts Of 2021.”
With the release of his Boiler Room set last month, which went viral and has already topped over 6 million streams, Fred Again maintained his upward trajectory. In just 4 weeks, he has surpassed the statistics attained by artists like Disclosure, Richie Hawtin, Skream, and Fatboy Slim.
After wrapping up a lengthy summer tour that included festival appearances at events like Coachella, Primavera, Melt, Way Out West, Rock En Seine, and All Points East, Fred Again will continue his live ascent with sold-out performances around the world throughout the autumn of 2022. This includes his current sold-out US headline tour, which included three nights at New York’s Terminal 5 with a capacity of 3000.
